Good way to immerse


My last year's trial on idol

The Ganesh Chaturthi was celebrated allover pleasantly; some immerse the idols of ganesh on the day worshiped and some later days. But what the good way to terminate the festive is to send the thing where it belongs. Last year I done as experiment to see the clay idol dissolved into tub of water, within 2-3 days it became fluid and crème layer to use in flower pots. This time we have no Chaturthi to see the same progress, some really wonder and laugh at my thought within family and relatives then to see appreciate is a good way. Just dipping the idol in river and sea, why this long process may think, but what significant is to save environment and fishes. A few drop of salt wont taste difference in a tumbler of pure water, when the drop increase it turns salty, so as one and more idols unclean the sea, lake or any shores of water.

It was another day sitting before television, in more patients to watch films and programs in countless advertisements. I come across this cute animation film Balganesh in Star Vijay, the creativity of the ganesh character was lovably, esp. what he does getting the elephant trunk and he sounds sweet in vocal. I told before, because of grandma missing we have no celebration at home, but there were special dishes prepared by mom for us to spend the day watching TV and having them. So if anyone like the idea go with your idol and see the change we can bring.

Jeevan,

What a great thought! I wish everyone thinks the same way. Many times I have felt bad about this immersion stuff. Keep it up. Also keep recycling plastic as far as possible. Avoid using them if you can. Keep your circle aware about the plastic stuff. I wish you develop some more wonderful thoughts like this.

I think it is such a good way to keep our lakes and oceans from being polluted and at the same time you are recycling to save the planet.Good job Jeevan.

Interestingly we don't really immerse Vinayagar in sea here. Just prayers and lots of food :-)
